I am overwhelmed!

Oh my goodness my boys just kill me!  I asked my boys to write a letter for the blog for Ariana!  I am amazed at their precious words and hearts!!  I am overjoyed with the Love they have for their sister, their new one to come and Anna!  God is so good to give me the gift of my precious sons!  What teens would be this way?  ONLY GOD is all I can say!  I am overwhelmed by their precious hearts!  Thank you, Thank you Lord!!!

I was just thinking of the day we got Anna.  Your just not sure how your sons will react, 13 and 16 at the time.  Well.... overwhelming love!!!  I remember who was the first to run and I mean literally run to see Anna and the first to meet her.... my son Anton.  Those that know my boy, he does not run to much!  It was so moving to see.  Then who was the first to get Anna to smile... Aaron!  Yes and I so can hear in my mind his precious voice playing and cooing Anna with a sound I had never heard before that day!  Just precious!!!  Soooo sooo cute, playing horsey with her and talking so sweet! 

God you are soooooo good!  I pray this over this trip to come that you overwhelm them again with your precious love and hearts for their new sister Ariana, and all orphans!  For even more works in their hearts for Your work Lord!  For your amazing Love to overwhelm us all again for Ariana and for peace and patience as we transition her into our family.  And for Ariana to have peace that is beyond understanding and see our overwhelming love for her!  For Anna as well, that as she is already in love with her sister, that this will be overwhelming for her too and that she too will have peace as she goes back to her country.  That it will be an amazingly positive experience for my precious girl!

Love from a Mom who can't wait to hold her precious Daughter Ariana, that God has already picked out for us 1 1/2 years ago, and He has already planted you deeply into our hearts!  We just can't wait to meet you!  Just can't wait!!
